Yes please! My husband and I are starting to have a growing interest in wine. We live in a state that has quite a number of wineries. We are trying to educate ourselves about food and wine pairings too.
I was browsing through my Google Reader today and came across a post from Not Martha that piqued my interest. Sometime I just browse her link posts but today the word wine caught my eye. She mentioned a website that sells wine bottles that have damaged labels or outdated labels. I had to check it out. The website is called The Accidental Wine Company. I’m interested in purchasing the package that is called David’s Proclivity. It is only $36 for 3 bottles of wine. You tell them what color wine you want and ta da new wines to try! I love this idea. I guess I will have to say no to a pair of shoes in the future and give this site a try! Te he!! Has anyone else heard of or tried this site?
I haven’t heard of this site, but one resource that has helped me understand wines (and that I use for my wine events/presentations) is this book: The Wine Club. Check it if you get a chance and maybe invite some friends over to learn more about wines together!

I have never heard of companies selling discount wine with blemished labels before. What a great idea.
